In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and water to create an egg wash.
In a separate bowl, mix the gluten-free breadcrumbs with salt and black pepper.
Place the cornstarch on a plate.
Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel. Coat each fillet first in cornstarch, then dip it in the egg wash, and finally coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, fry the fish fillets for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
While the fish is frying, prepare the tartar sauce by mixing mayonnaise, chopped dill pickles, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard in a small bowl.
Toast the gluten-free buns if desired.
Assemble the sandwiches by spreading a generous amount of tartar sauce on the bottom half of each bun.
Layer with a piece of crispy fish fillet, a slice of cheese, and some shredded iceberg lettuce.
Top with the upper half of the bun, serve immediately, and enjoy your homemade gluten-free Filet-O-Fish!
